Orange Juice

Normally, most juices are high in sugar and overly processed. However, when youre sick with a cold, a glass of 100percent real orange juice (with pulp) can provide a vitamin kick when youre not eating a lot or having trouble digesting foods high in fiber due to gastric distress. Juice is a great way to get vitamins and fruit sugar in an easily digestible format. Real vegetable juices are also a great choice. Whatever you pick, just make sure its 100% pure fruit or vegetable juice with no added refined sugars, colors, or chemicals. Plus, the natural vitamins and nutrients in real fruit juice (such as vitamin C) will boost the immune system and aid in energy stores to give your body that zip it needs to whip that flu bug.
